HIT Policy Committee Meets

by Gwen.Cantarera 19. August 2009 14:48


Has some of the “fog” lifted surrounding meaningful use and certification?

On August 14th a slew of new recommendations were approved by the HIT Policy Committee including timelines for development and certification, the use of CPOE by providers, reported quality measures, etc. (from here). Among some of the concerns voiced in the article and within the comments of this summary, from CCHIT, is the seemingly rushed timeline that was adopted.

Do you think the government is moving too fast in the process of trying to enable healthcare enterprises across the US with EHRs?
